Any calls I receive are automatically silenced if they are not in my Contact List.

I don't answer them, of course, but it seems like the call volume has really gone up of late.  Sometimes it even starts around 7am.   I sure wish something could be done about this.  It certainly seems doable.

My internet/cable/phone company offers an option that forces callers to enter a number via the keypad in order to continue the call. Since scammers/robo callers don’t have keypads, they are stopped cold. The day after I signed up, I never got another scam phone call. It is very effective.

@cosmic1 @What company?
